Round out your 2019 Valentine’s Day with a concert by The Murfreesboro Symphony Orchestra. The symphony has devoted the entire season to movie soundtracks, and on Thursday, Feb. 14, the program “Love Songs Through the Movies” will be presented.

Dr. Jordan Tang serves as guest conductor for the concert, held at First United Methodist Church. Dr. Tang will lead the orchestra in a program including “The Marriage of Figaro,” “Love Theme From Romeo and Juliet” (also known as “A Time for Us”), “Prelude to Carmen,” “Lara’s Theme” and “Wedding March.”

“I can’t think of a better way to treat or impress your loved one,” said Jane McNulty, president of the Murfreesboro Symphony Board of Directors.

The season theme for the symphony has been a hit; the Christmas concert in December was a complete sell-out with standing room only, McNulty added.

He has also worked with the Charlotte Symphony, Ozark Festival Orchestra, the Missouri State University Symphony, the Hong Kong Philharmonic, the Nashville Symphony and others.

Maestro Tang has also composed more than 90 original works, including four symphonies, three string quartets and various concerto and choral works.
